Colonial roots

[Carlito's Way]

Are colonial Mexicans the population that have the most people who are over 80% European?
We are aware of Latin Americans who are over 80% European but 99% of them tend to have recent European admixture
Most Mexicans who in that range are actually of colonial heritage and lack recent European heritage

I have notice this by looking at DNA results of Latin Americans who are 80%+ European 99% of the cases, they have recent European admixture

All these Mexicans are of colonial ancestry and have no recent European heritage

Yes but they are probably in the 2 to 10 % minority of people in Mexico. Same with DR and other LatAm countries

My maternal grandfather was 99.9 % European, half Basque half Galician, and he was like 3rd generation , very few such as him.

Most Latin American nations received many recent waves of Europeans, thus altering their demographics
We also have many towns/areas in Mexico with populations that score at a similar percentage

Yet there are no towns like that found in Latin America, except for those who received a large wave of recent Europeans
so my question is more towards colonial Latinos vs recent European Latinos in regards to their European %

So the more recent European settlers in your country, the higher the European heritage will be
Examples. Argentina, Uruguay, Brazil, Cuba and even Puerto Rico
now compare countries that received very little European recent wave
the European % is completely different

I feel like a lot of those nations would have been very non-white if it werent from their recent waves of Europeans
I feel like Argentina would have been on average 40% European + 55% Amerindian + 5% SSA (hence their most Amerindian regions with the least Euro recent waves tend to be highly Amerindian)
Brazil would have been more like Argentina except with the SSA component being 50% and amerindian 10%
Puerto Rico might have been similar to Dominican Republic
and Cuba probably as well

Como me esperaba, los que tienen alta ancestría europea colonial son gente del Norte de México y Los Altos, ya que anteriormente (o incluso actualmente, aunque menos) se casaban entre familia (No solo para mantener la "pureza de sangre" sino también porque la mayoría de ellos eran/son gente hacendada con enormes ranchos y terrenos, y así mantener toda su riqueza)

Tranquilamente los confundiria con gente del medio oriente o Turquía

lo colonial se encuentra en todo mexico, y aun asi, te puedes encontrar mexicanos de todos los estados aunque sean una minoria con un alto porcentaje europeo siendo que no tienen nada de sangre reciente de europa
tengo un 23andme "relative" de Veracruz que es 89% Europeo y no tiene nada de sangre reciente de europa, pero a la vez, el viene de un municipio donde la mayoria son harnizos/castizos (me refiero a lo fenotipo)

por eso digo que el caso de mexico es muy interesante
ya que la mayoria de la poblacion de su lado europeo es colonial desde la fundacion de sus pueblos/regiones

si, es que tienen meszcla de todo
los europeos coloniales de esas areas como en el caso de monterrey
son mezcla entre italianos, españoles, portugueses, judios, canarios etc

obviamente no se van a haber muy europeos cuando por siglos no han tenido mezcla reciente de europa y conservaron des fenotipo diversos de sus ancestros
por eso es muy comun ver gente de esa apracencia en las clases altas de Monterrey, muchos tienen aparanencia judia y asi

A lot of others states too, Minas Gerais is just the champion.

Only Minas Gerais have more than 7 milion white colonials easily.
